Pierre Ferrand Ambre Cognac 750ml

Pierre Ferrand Ambre is made entirely from Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, the top cru of Cognac, and averages about 10 years in French oak. It is bottled at 40% by Maison Ferrand at Château de Bonbonnet, the house Alexandre Gabriel rebuilt from 1989.

It is elegant and fruit-led rather than oaky, with a gentle spice finish.

For a single-cru cognac at a fair price, Ambre is our pick over a big-house VSOP. For a richer Fine Champagne blend, compare Rémy Martin 1738; the same house also makes Citadelle Gin.

Sip it neat at room temperature, or use it in a French 75, Vieux Carré or Brandy Alexander.

A favourite with bartenders for classic cognac cocktails, and a good way to taste what Grande Champagne alone brings to a cognac. More bottles are under cognac and brandy and cognac, and the rest of our liquor is a click away. Pick it up at our Brooklyn store or get same-day delivery across NYC.
